Follow the new binding AGENTS.md rules 
AGENTS.md became a work instruction rather than a style guide while this
sat waiting, and two of its new rules apply here.

"Write the Application's Name, Not a Placeholder": the strings this script
author wrote now say Rocket.Chat. The two that stay as ${APP} --
"No ${APP} Installation Found!" and the footer -- are verbatim from the CT
template in AGENTS.md itself, so changing them would diverge from it.

"Deciding var_arm64" forbids leaving the line commented when the answer is
knowable. It is: the shipped bundle carries aarch64 natives next to the
x86-64 ones (node-v127-linux-arm64-glibc/gcstats.node), anything without a
prebuild is compiled by node-gyp, which is why build-essential is a
dependency, and both other layers publish arm64 -- MongoDB 8.0 has 428
arm64 packages in the Ubuntu noble suite core maps Debian arm64 onto, and
NodeSource 22 serves arm64. So yes, with the caveat stated in the PR that
this is reasoned from the artifact and its dependencies, not from a run on
arm64 hardware.
